Song Information for Narcissus in a Red Dress

{t:Narcissus in a Red Dress}
{st:The Like}
intro: Bm C#m [2x]
[Verse 1]
[Bm]Where a little girl once stood
Now sits [C#m]an empty base
Cold and shiny
Hard and tiny
[F#]Difficu[Em]lt to w[D]ash aw[F#]ay
oh, mon[G]sters get creative every day.
[Bm]And nothing can prepare you for the day they run away
Your f[C#m]ine tutelage is no longer needed
So you?ve sealed your fate
One mi[Bm]nute, she's your best friend
Then you watch her take your place
I g[C#m]uess that taught them all the same
You clever little c[F#]harlata[A]ns
Amb[D]ition gleams in o[G]verdrive
And [A]I can't take it
[Chorus]
[B]What goes up must come on down
Get your feet back on the ground
Na[G]rcissus in a red dress
You're like all the rest, Miss
[B]Blinded by your own reflection
Let the lights direct you now
Narc[G]issus in a red dress
You're like all the rest, I k[Bm]now.
I k[C#m]now.
[Verse 2]
Behave and like the Virgin Queen
You're just as damaged underneath
You know, No matter how good your impersonation of me ever grows,
Deep down you know your insides never change
But people love it, vapid and shamesless, simply lacking taste
They fall for the spell of Lady Macbeth
Her calculated grace
But I can see the hunger of compulsion in your face
High school skinny fades away
And you're just left with Polaroids
capturing your fifteen minutes
Ain't it great?
[Chorus repeated]
[Bm]Vanity on parade
Vacant, frantic, and st[C#]range
Fraught with heartache and desperation
[Bm]Guess I loved you in vain,
Consider this song your w[C#]ake
Lost your head to the elevation
[F#]All the ki[Em]ng's horses and al[D]l the king's me[F#]n
[G]Couldn't bring you b[A]ack again
[Chorus repeated]
